Anal Nosorog Interview



This interview appeared at Flesh Salad 'zine #6. I hope you enjoy it.

Solkar:Thank you for your time answering my questions. Now the first shot. I have to recognize that the first time I heard from your band was reading about Seth Putnam travelling to Russia to make a short tour with a Russian band as support. How did you met Seth? Who had the idea to organize this tour?


Anal Nosorog:It was spontaneous idea, I just came back home from a party and wrote a letter that we can bring him and learn AxCx songs to bring only him. He answered that he`s interested, so we started it.

S:On may you did a tour around the Baltic with AxCx, Torsofuck and other local bands like Sebohrrea (I planned to attend the show in Riga but finally it was impossible. Fuck). Tell us about this and your touring plans in the future. Any plan to tour Europe widely? (Of course Spain is mandatory)




AxNx:The tour was totally cool, I liked Scandinavian countries. It was a total alcohol madness there, we started to live on a alcopatrol this time. I had a fight with a gay musician on the boat between Finland and Sweden and was put into prison after that and nearly got married in Sweden on a girl I saw 5 minutes before. In Riga god sent me the girl who took me to her place where I was laying like a wounded and she took care about me, thank you Arta. Of cause after that when I came back, I lost my job, my girlfriend, the band started crushing and I had to lay 3 days healing the hangover. But I was smiling, because everything was fine in any case. Well, this shit happens always, after our last tour, where the vocalist had alcoholic mania for 10 days, he cancelled the band and attended to Christian university. But in any case looks like we lost too much already, so there`s no way back from rockin` haha.




S:Your CD “Condom of Hate” is going to be released by XtreemMusic, do you expect to get to a wider audience with this deal? Which was the reason to change from previous label?


AxNx:Yeah, we just wanted to get a wider audience. And also I remember Dave from the first time they came to Russia with Avulsed and also he has a Russian wife, so the deal was a fate.

S:Is it difficult to handle with Russian labels? I don’t know much about grind or metal scene in Russia (OK, there are a lot of NSBM bands), so please, give me some lines about. Is it usual to mix politics and music? (I think it's cool that your prime minister is an expert in close combat techniques) Why don't you support any politics?

AxNx:I don`t think there`s any need to handle with Russian grind labels for Russian grind bands. This music is more popular in any country but not Russia. Here you can be cool if you sing Russian lyrics, but looks like you`ll be only in Russia. Maybe that’s why we decided not to have texts at all. About NSBM bands – I know only 2-3 from Russia, I thought most of them are from Ukraine and Baltics, so your info is not right. About politics I think if the band tries to say that they are not political at all – they are the most political band ever, it`s a provocation usually, haha. And Putin is totally cool I think, maybe somebody should start a band called Putin.

S:Regarding “Condom of Hate” I want to know which is the idea behind the title. It’s clearly an hom
age to Anal Cunt, even you can find one of the songs recorded live with Seth Putnam on vocals. Will this AxCx trend follow in the future?


AxNx:Well, I got stoned and thought about condoms not for making love, but for making hate, maybe some kind of love should be without condoms, I hate these gay actions for teens when the say that you should use this stuff. It`s about cannibalism also – if you watch on the picture of the album – there`s a human hand under the cover and the fire means that it`s fried and ready to be eaten. About AxCx – I think we won`t mix it with AxNx if we continue making stuff with Seth.

S:I’ve seen some pics of the band live and I noticed that your guitar is only wearing 3 strings (maybe I’ve seen some pics even with 2), so I don't think your much into shredding but which musics are/were an influence for you? (mentionAxCx is not necessary)


AxNx:Haha, I used to have 2 strings some times ago, I think if you play the music called grindcore (hate this word, gay style) – you don`t need more. Now I like old school rock stuff like Iron Maiden, Motorhead, Pantera and everything which rocks. I don`t think modern fashionable grindcore or death metal is brutal or frightening at all, it`s odd and ridiculous.

S:Why a rhino and not a… let’s say a unicorn. Are there any rhinos running across the Russian steppe?


AxNx:Yeah, we have rhinos here near Moscow, some rhino farms and even meet factories. Their meet feeds a half of all the Russia. And the Russia is associated with vodka, Stravinskiy, communism and rhinos. And the prefix anal is to show how gay grind core is.

S:I hope to see some new recordings of AxNx in a near future. Which are your recording plans? Any split or 7"?


AxNx:Yeah, we`re planning to record a single or 7 inch in Finland in nearest future, maybe in January even. I`m gonna make some experiments with the sound this time, it should sound weird, not like the Condom Of Hate easy listening. Seth Putnam sold me the formula of guitar raw sound for 15000$, if anybody is interested, I can sell it cheaper.

S:Some members of AxNx are involved in different projects. Do you recommend any of them to Flesh Salad readers? (Take care, we're a bunch of old school silly bastards)


AxNx:Oh, it`s cool you`re a bunch of old shit, I got it only here, in the end of interview, cause at first I thought your`re bunch of fags fans of “ultra brutal blastbitting guttural goregrind”. Actually none of the members play this shit. Our drummer played in Ashen Light and many oi bands. The vocalist also involved in Korrozia Metalla – the best Russian metal band ever, I realy advice you to take some old stuff of them. They`re so cool, that fags like Curby from Obscene extreme are so afraid of this band, Korrozia is much more brutal and hard and funny and everything then the jewish grind core shit they promote. But in any case I wanna thank Curby for a very good promotion (some nazi stuff). I`m ashamed only because at first I didn`t understand everything and started to justify myself that the band`s not a nazi band. But if someone wants to see Nazism in us – then why not? I also don`t understand the fags who write the letters to all the European bands especially who`re gonna play here with us that we`re nazi punks. Some of them even wrote on the forum or something like this that being gay is ok. What the fuck???!!! Oh, in the end I must tell that I started a line of glam nazi clothes. Many pink girly stuff with swastikas and hearts. And here I attached our answer to heartogramm – it`s a lovestika ©.



S:To close the intie I want to make it more noisecore style, short and raw.
Let’s go!

Grind? No
Gay? No
Noise? No

Gay? No
FckU? No
Gay? No
AxCx? No
Gay? No

AxNx? No
Gay? No
Nazi punk? Nazi pink!
Eurovision? Sieg Heil!

Parlamentarisk Sodomi - Har Du Sagt "A" Får Du Si "Nal" [CD][2008] No Escape



Con una brutalidad inusitada se presentan estos noruegos con su primer disco. No hay tregua alguna en ninguno de los 15 temas. Ritmos acelerados, contundentes blast beats y unos riffs de guitarra con un airecillo black metal (nada que ver con Anaal Nathrakh). La ejecución de los temas es perfecta, casi más de banda de metal que de grindcore, pero sin perder un ápice de fuerza. En resumen, grindcore de la escuela más garrula pero aun y así contundete y afilado.

Mención aparte merece el artwork del disco. Presentación en blanco y negro con un montón de fotomontajes de políticos noruegos (supongo); muy hardcore. Lo que me ha dejado un poco descolocado es la tipografía que usán para los títulos de los temas y el logo de la banda. Totalmente inintelegible. Tuve que tirar de internet para averiguar los títulos de las canciones.

Boris & Merzbow - Rock Dream [2007]


Como suele ser habitual en las bandas japonesas nos encontramos ante nuevo material grabado en vivo. La verdad es que este hecho no deja de ser una mera anécdota ya que la calidad técnica de la grabación es increíble.

Rock Dream es la última colaboración de Boris con Merzbow y se nota que no es la primera vez, ya que se compenetran a la perfección. La musica de Boris pasa entre momentos de ambiental drone para, después de unos intensos rugidos noise, fluir a temas de dulzón stoner rock. El estilo de Boris es bastante heterogéneo pero sabén mantener una coherencia muy sólida.

No se si hay esta grabación incluye temas nuevos, no controlo su discografía, pero estoy seguro de que haciendo combo con Merzbow ganan en intensidad. Un buen disco para los paladares más experimentales.

Flesh Salad #4

Para aquellos que no conozcais el 'zine Flesh Salad esto os va a importar un pijo, aunque seguramente los que sí lo conozcais tampoco perdais el tiempo leyendo.

A pesar de que salió hace ya unos meses, nunca está de más hacerle un poco de propaganda, que con suerte, le sirva de empujón para el siguiente número.

Con portada del siempre underground-que-te-cagas Luisma de Haemorrhage, tenemos la vuelta a las andaduras del fanzineo al amigo JL. Amante del Death Metal de toda la vida, nos enseña que todavía hay algunos grupos que le siguen dando a esto del metal de la muerte e incluso otros empiezan ahora a berrear en honor a dioses primigenios y demás lindezas de la naturaleza.

Entre entrañables ñordos flotantes y purulentos cadáveres (foto de Paris Hilton incluida) tenemos entrevistas con Funebrarum, Resurrection, Killing Addiction y Katalysator (¿alguien me pasa sus demos?). Y porque en esto de la brutalismo, el lanzamiento de cabras desde campanarios y el exterminio sistematico de individuos; los españoles sabemos lo nuestro, tenemos un hueco entre las páginas de Flesh Salad 'zine para el producto patrio. Entre sus páginas encontramos amenas conversaciones con los Moñigo, Violent Headache y Tu Carne; amen de una entrevista con Salva a Calabozo Rec. y Mandragora 'zine. Además de todo esto la sección de cine de terror/gore (by El Buque Maldito 'zine) con la entrevista a Paul Naschy como colofón.

Y sí, también hay críticas y alabanzas hacia discos y hacia otras publicaciones del gremio. ¡¡¡¡En el próximo número queremos más sangreeeeeee!!!!

Pués esto es lo que hay en el último número (hasta la fecha) del Flesh Salad fanzine editado en legendario blanco y negro y en (no menos legendario) papel.


PD: Todos los arboles empleados para servir de soporte a esta publicación han sido brutalmente arrancados de cuajo, triturados y bañados en ácidos varios, para luego ser prensados inmisericordemente hasta extraer todo sus jugos.

El servidor ha muerto

Esta mañana se ha producido la defunción del ordenador donde estaba alojada la pagina. Aunque el contenido antiguo del blog, supongo, seguirá guardado en el disco duro, ahora no tengo ganas de trasladarlo al ordenador que tengo disponible.

Proximamente volveremos a estar con ustedes.
